Dismissed as iconoclast,
GALBRAITH truly a seer
By Shawn McCARTHY,
Page▼ B1
New York -- John Kenneth
GALBRAITH produced no elegant mathematical
models to support his economic analysis; there is no Galbraithian
school that has applied his theories to the 21st-century world
of globalized markets and complex financial derivatives.
But knowingly or not, skeptics about current conventional economic
wisdom and non-believers in the self-correcting mechanisms of
the market owe an enormous debt to the Canadian-born, Harvard-bred
economist.
Mr. GALBRAITH died Saturday at the age of 97 in a hospital in
Cambridge, Massachusetts.
His most recent contribution to the dismal science came just
two years ago with The Economics of Innocent Fraud, a short book
that challenged modern orthodoxy by questioning the ability of
markets to regulate themselves and of corporations to govern
themselves.
It was a theme Mr.
GALBRAITH had been advocating publicly since
the publishing of his bestseller The Affluent Society in 1958.
In his numerous books, the economist, who began his career as
a New Deal bureaucrat during modern capitalism's worst crisis,
anticipated speculative bubbles like the dot-com frenzy -- and
the unsustainable froth in the current real estate market --
as well as corporate scandals of the Enron and WorldCom variety
far better than most mainstream economists have.
His insight that a well-functioning economy requires "countervailing
powers" -- enunciated in his 1952 opus, American Capitalism --
anticipated the passage of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, aimed
at reforming corporate governance in the aftermath of the scandals.
Still, modern business economists tend to dismiss Mr.
GALBRAITH
as an iconoclast, a political economist whose critiques may be
somewhat cogent but whose progressive prescriptions are wholly
unworkable.
He is compared unfavorably to his long-time rival, Milton Friedman,
the conservative University of Chicago economist who won the
Nobel Prize in 1976 for his work on consumption analysis, monetary
history and the complexity of economic stabilization policies.
But then Mr.
GALBRAITH tended to dismiss modern economics and
its reliance on mathematical models that he believed failed to
account for human nature, less-than-perfect market information
or unequal power relationships.
And in his life-long battle with conventional wisdom -- a phrase
he coined -- Mr.
GALBRAITH appeared to rarely doubt the superiority
of his own vision.
In an interview at his Cambridge home last year after the publication
of a biography by Harvard University colleague Richard Parker,
the long-time lecturer retained his authoritative tone, delivering
answers to questions as if imparting lessons to an undergraduate.
But he frankly acknowledged his own arrogance, leavening it with
self-deprecating humour and epigrammatic sarcasm. "Humility,"
he once quipped, "is not always compatible with the truth."
A central concern of Mr.
GALBRAITH's life work was the need in
a healthy society for a proper balance between private consumption
and public good. It is a theme that echoes today as governments
and global institutions look beyond gross domestic product per
capita to educational opportunity and environmental health in
comparing quality of life among countries.
Mr. GALBRAITH achieved his pre-eminence in the optimistic years
of the 1960s, when he advised the Democratic administrations
of John F. Kennedy and Lyndon B. Johnson on government programs
aimed at eradicating poverty.
Asked to sum up a half-century of his work in a sentence or two,
he refrained from sarcasm and took a mechanically assisted breath
before uttering what would sound to many a modern ear as an anachronistic
philosophy.
"As regards the United States and all political entities, there
should be a diminution in concern about economic well being.
I'm for a socially pain-free, decently egalitarian society."
But for the last 30 years of his life, Mr.
GALBRAITH was increasingly
a voice in wilderness, as the conventional wisdom grew ever more
skeptical of the ability of government to intervene constructively
in the economy, and ever more confident in the marketplace.
In writing Mr.
GALBRAITH's biography, Mr. Parker was candidly
aiming to reclaim the economist's status as one of the great
thinkers of the 20th century.
Mr.
Parker named several current economists who -- like Mr.
GALBRAITH
before them -- stretched the bounds of mainstream economics to
rethink mainstream models and axioms and look to human behavioural
theory to explain distribution of scarce resources.
Chief among them is Harvard University professor Amartya Sen,
a Nobel Prize winner for his work on development economics. Prof. Sen
credited Mr.
GALBRAITH's
American
Capitalism for helping him
appreciate the great importance of competing powers in societies.
Prof.
Sen has compared Mr.
GALBRAITH's impact on modern economics
with William Shakespeare's influence on the English language.
"It's like reading Hamlet and deciding it's full of quotations,"
he is quoted as saying. "You realize where they came from."

WIELAND,
Joyce, 1998 -- Died This Day
Painter, sculptor, quilt maker and filmmaker born on June 30,
1931, in Toronto.
Orphaned at 7, she believed she had no chance of becoming an
artist, so in 1944 she took up fashion design at Toronto's Central
Technical High School. Once there, she was diverted to the arts
program by the painter Doris
McCARTHY, who said she "drew like
an angel." After staging a Toronto exhibition in 1959, she produced
a portfolio of highly personal art featuring nationalist, feminist
and environmental themes. She was probably the only Canadian
artist in a public gallery with a painting of a naked male with
an erection, or with art that used menstrual blood as a central
image. In 1957, she married the artist and jazz musician Michael
SNOW and from 1962 to 1970 they lived in New York, where she
made "underground" films that brought her a measure of success.
In 1976, she made The Far Shore, a feature film starring Frank
Moore set in the Canadian shield. In 1971, the exhibition of
her work at The National Gallery of Canada was that gallery's
first major exhibition devoted to the work of a living Canadian
woman artist. In 1987, the Art Gallery of Ontario mounted a major
travelling exhibition of her work, its first retrospective of
a living Canadian woman artist.

BOULTER,
Brian▲
C.
By Nancy McCARTHY,
Page▲
A22
Husband, father, brother, uncle, friend. Born May 14, 1954, in
Peterborough, Ontario Died March 19, of lung cancer, in Toronto,
aged 51.
Born the youngest of three, Brian's first challenge was to survive
living with two older sisters who were never short of advice.
Actually it was only one sister who drove him crazy and that
would be me. Brian rose to the challenge of the bossy older sister
often to the point of fisticuffs and it only subsided when, quite
honestly, I could not beat him any longer. Being the only boy
and the youngest child, older sister Marlene and I (but mostly
I) earnestly attempted to enlighten our parents as to how much
they were spoiling him. When Brian was 9, dad bought him a 6 hp.
motor and an aluminum boat. We lived on the Trent Canal system
and my mother said he could take the boat out only if he stayed
between the two buoys that she could see him from our back door.
He would spend hours going back and forth and back and forth.
Getting him to come in for meals was yet another challenge. My
sister and I would be waving our arms madly from the dock but
he would just ignore us and keep on going. "He's just a boy,"
my mother would say.
Brian played so hard that he broke his leg three times over the
course of a few years. It never seemed to slow him down. He could
be seen on his bike, in the boat or hobbling down the street
as fast as his legs would take him! Several times my dad warned
Brian that if he had one more flat tire or busted the gears on
his bike that would be the end of it. But he kept on repairing
the bike, it seems.
Friends factored very large in Brian's life. In the late 1950s,
our neighbourhood was teeming with young children; Brian and
his partners in crime were always on the loose. One time, Brian
and his Friends decided to "camp out" in our rec room downstairs.
When my mother smelled something strange and investigated she
discovered that they had set a mattress on fire by putting a
lamp under the covers.
Our family loved holidays and we often trailered our boat to
different parts of Ontario -- the Thousand Islands, Huntsville,
Presqu'ile Point. Boats became a huge part of Brian's life; he
was employed by Paris Marine for more than 20 years and at family
get-togethers he told stories about life in the boat business.
Although he was only 5-foot-10 he had a 6-foot-4 voice: The more
stories he told the bigger his voice became. Such was his enthusiasm
and it was contagious.
He married Debbie
GAFFNEY in 1980 after a long courtship. Secretly
my sister and I believed it took him so long because he wanted
to be sure Debbie was committed to all of his recreational activities
and toys. In 1985, their son Charles was born; in 1990, Anna
came along. As a family they took several vacations, mainly in
the winter to sunny tropics. Debbie often joked that whenever
she suggested doing some home improvements Brian would at first
agree and then a couple of days later talk her into taking a
trip, instead. They lived in a small village and he and Debbie
always seemed to be on the road taking Charles or Anna to hockey,
baseball, dance, work or Friends. He never complained about this
no matter what time of day or night. He also delighted in sharing
his childhood stories with them, often on the way home from church
on Sunday mornings.
Although Brian worked very long hours in the summer and often
had to arrive late and leave early for work, he loved coming
to our cottage and the family time together. He was always like
a big kid ready to do just about anything.
In December, 2005, my brother was diagnosed with lung cancer.
He met it head-on with courage and determination to beat it,
but it was not to be. The loss we all feel is overwhelming. But
we have to go on because Brian had "no time for whiners."
Nancy McCARTHY is Brian's sister.

widely as a reporter and, after a long spell with the Winnipeg
Free Press, he returned to the Victoria Times as editor, a job
he held until 1963, when he became editorial director of the
Vancouver Sun. On the side, he wrote 16 books whose subjects
were mostly rooted in politics or history. Among them were three
acclaimed Canadian studies, The Unknown Country (1942), Tomorrow's

DOBBIN,
Craig
Laurence, O.C.
Craig Laurence
DOBBIN, O.C., husband, father, grandfather, dear
friend, entrepreneur, philanthropist, chairman, founder of the
world's largest helicopter corporation and one of Newfoundland
and Labrador's proudest sons. Surrounded by his beloved wife,
confidante and best friend Elaine, his five children, and his
brothers and sisters, at home looking out over the rugged Atlantic
Ocean in Beachy Cove, Newfoundland, he presided gracefully and
courageously over his final covenant and entered into the arms
of the angels at age 71 on October 7, 2006. Craig
DOBBIN was
born in Saint_John's, Newfoundland on Friday, September 13, 1935,
one of 11 children to Rita
(POWER) and Patrick. He grew up on
King's Bridge Road, a working class neighbourhood. He graduated
from St. Bonaventure College in Saint_John's and went on to become
one of the global aviation industry's most successful figures.
He provided opportunity, support and inspiration to thousands
through his businesses, his philanthropy and most importantly
through his charming, larger than life, magnanimous character.
A fearless buccaneer in the business world, Craig was guided
by integrity, honesty and loyalty, and dove passionately into
every task he undertook. He sprinkled his many speeches with
concise, memorable axioms, including his three favorites: 'Never
take no for an answer,' 'Turn adversity into opportunity,' and,
his favorite in recent years, 'Time is the enemy.' From his base
in Newfoundland, he founded Sealand Helicopters with one aircraft
in 1977 and launched CHC Helicopter Corporation in 1987,
building the enterprise into the largest helicopter services
company in the world through timely acquisitions, strategic decisions
and the support of many dedicated, loyal employees. He visited
many of the 35 countries in which CHC operates, served as
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and later as Executive Chairman,
and delivered his final speech to shareholders with his usual
wit and charm, and to lengthy applause, on September 28, 2006
in Vancouver. Craig founded Omega Investments, a Newfoundland
real estate company that, combined with his reputation and integrity,
provided the leverage and collateral for many of his subsequent
ventures. He founded Air Atlantic, a regional fixed-wing airline
when the Open Skies Treaty was signed in 1989; created Vector
Aerospace through a public offering; built Canadian Helicopters
and created CHC Composites Limited. With every success, he
was quick to point to his team, describing himself as a casting
director rather than a master at business. He recognized talent
and had a knack of making every individual feel important and
his fellow employees were like family to him. Craig strongly
believed in giving back to the community and did so with passion.
In the giving of his time and talents, he never looked for recognition,
but received it nevertheless for his outstanding generosity,
support and encouragement. He was inducted as an Officer of the
Order of Canada - which he considered to be his greatest honour
he received honorary degrees from Memorial University of Newfoundland,
the National University of Ireland and Saint Mary's University
in Halifax. He was the Provincial and National Transportation
Person of the Year; was awarded the Medaille de l'aeronatique
from the Government of France established to reward the individuals
who distinguished themselves in the development of aviation
was inducted into the Newfoundland and Labrador Business Hall
of Fame; was Atlantic Canada's Entrepreneur of the Year and was
voted Newfoundland and Labrador's Businessman of the Millennium.
Just this past week, Craig received notification that he was
to be inducted into Canada's Aviation Hall of Fame in June 2007
for his lifetime of work and achievement in the aviation industry.
He was a fiercely proud Newfoundlander, a loyal Canadian and
honoured citizen of the Republic of Ireland. Craig served as
Honourary Consul General of Ireland for Newfoundland and Labrador
and was Chairman of the Ireland-Canada University Foundation
in Dublin. Equally at ease with presidents, princes and those
less fortunate, he supported, sometimes anonymously, many causes.
He endowed the Robert M. Kotloff/Nancy P. Blumenthal Professorship
for Advanced Lung Disease at the University of Pennsylvania and
served as Honourary Chairman and Patron for various non-profit
organizations including the Lung Association of Newfoundland
and Labrador; Newfoundland Cancer Treatment and Research Foundation
The Janeway Children's Hospital Foundation; The Health Care Foundation
of Newfoundland and Labrador; Memorial University and others. He
was named Outstanding Individual Philanthropist by the Canadian
Society of Fundraising Executives. He will be greatly missed
and fondly remembered by thousands. Leaving to mourn his wife,

the government, he played an important role in the development
of new universities in Ontario and in the expansion of existing
universities. Later, he returned to the Department of Education

which was tenable for a year of full-time study, again at Columbia.
He was a member of two honourary societies in education, Kappa
Delta Pi and Phi Delta Kappa, in chapters at Columbia. He served

Marie CURTIS, 94: Long Branch fighter on Metro Council
Marie CURTIS always spoke her mind
Fought doggedly for her constituents
By Phinjo GOMBU,
Staff
Reporter
As reeve of the long-gone village of Long Branch, Marie
CURTIS
took pride in being described as a plain-spoken housewife whose
political commentary was as crusty as the scrumptious apple pies
she loved to bake.
And as politicians -- including then-Toronto mayor Nathan
PHILLIPS
and Metro chairman Fred
GARDINER -- soon realized, they crossed
CURTIS's path at their peril.
The year was 1953, and
CURTIS, who represented Long Branch --
a working-class community of about 10,000 long since incorporated
into Etobicoke -- on Metro Council, was a reeve who believed
in speaking her mind.
"If you wanted a job done, call Marie," recalled Mississauga
Mayor Hazel
McCALLION, whose long political career in local politics
was beginning just as
CURTIS's was ending.
"She was such an energetic, lively person who didn't hesitate
to take a stand on an issue,"
McCALLION said. "When she was active,
I was just a junior in local politics and I always admired her
and had great respect for her."
From her epic battles against the east-west Toronto subway line,
to helping the victims of Hurricane Hazel relocate, to creating
Toronto's regional parkland system,
CURTIS left her mark on a
city that was just beginning to take form.
She lambasted builders who got a permit for one thing and then
built another, called the youth of the day "big lumps" who didn't
deserve publicly funded community centres, and fought tooth and
nail for the interests of her constituents.
CURTIS, who is honoured today by Marie Curtis Park on the banks
of Etobicoke Creek and Lake Ontario, died Sunday at her residence,
Grey Gables, in Markdale, southeast of Owen Sound. She was 94.
She was predeceased by her husband of 55 years, Bryce
CURTIS,
in 1988, and by her son Bill in 1987. She is survived by her
daughter Joan
McGEE, five grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren.
Ann Marie McCARTHY, who was born on a farm in Wyebridge, near
Midland, was a shy country girl until an aunt visited from St.
Louis, Missouri, when she was 9 years old. Family lore has it
that the aunt took a shine to her and the two went back to Missouri,
where the girl discovered the joys of music, theatre and libraries
things she didn't have back on the farm.
Ann Marie, who never went to high school or university, was a
changed girl when she returned home. One of seven children, she
was 14 when her mother died, and by 18 she was in Toronto working
in a hat factory to help support the family.
A few years later she met her husband, Bryce
CURTIS, and the
couple settled in the village of Long Branch because -- much
like today -- a house in Toronto was out of reach.
Back then, the village was a poor community made up of people
who worked in about a half-dozen local industries that included
making paint, bricks and water meters.
CURTIS's first foray into politics came when she was elected
president of the local Home and School Association, where she
led a victorious battle to get kindergarten classes. The ease
of the victory piqued her interest, and she began attending local
council meetings to learn about the business of politics.
In 1951, her life took a crucial turn when she learned the deputy
reeve's spot was being filled by acclamation because nobody wanted
to run against him.
"I thought that was awful," she told a journalist. "Why, he hadn't
done anything but rubber-stamp the rest of the council all the
time I was watching. So I went out to try and find someone to
fight that drone."
Unsuccessful in finding the right candidate, she returned home
one day and said she had found the perfect person: herself. She
went on to win in 1952.
A year later, in 1953,
CURTIS ran for reeve -- roughly equivalent
to village mayor -- and was elected. Long Branch voters quickly
learned they were on to a good thing and continued to re-elect
her until she retired in 1962, a decade of municipal politics
under her belt.
Betraying her housewife roots,
CURTIS often said her proudest
accomplishments included getting the village streets paved because
she was fed up with complaints from parents about their kids
tracking road tar into the house. She planted crabapple trees
that still bloom every spring, and brought the village its first
artificial ice rink by encouraging woman to sell kisses to gentlemen
for $1 apiece.
But it was on Metro Council, where she was a charter member --
and the first woman to sit on the powerful executive committee
with "Big Daddy" Gardiner -- that she began to make her mark.
CURTIS's politics were both populist and conservative.
She likened fathers who deserted their families to people who
sold tainted meat from dead and diseased animals. Both, she pronounced,
should be horsewhipped.
CURTIS wanted police officers posted outside drinking establishments
to keep drunks from driving. But she didn't think government
could force people out of their cars and on to public transit,
and supported the ill-fated Spadina Expressway.
It was, however, her opposition to the Bloor-Danforth subway
line -- a pet project of the mayors of Metro Toronto's bigger
municipalities in the early 1950s -- that propelled her into
the limelight.
CURTIS said she couldn't support the idea because the residents
of Long Branch were being forced to subsidize the Toronto Transit
Commission while zoned bus fares in her village were rising unfairly.
The battle went all the way to the Supreme Court and twice cost
her a place on council's executive committee. But both times
she bounced back.
"My mother always told me that the only way she did really well
at Metro Council was because she did her homework first," her
daughter Joan said.
After she retired as reeve,
CURTIS continued to play a role in
politics for six years as executive director of the Association
of Mayors and Reeves of Ontario -- forerunner to the Association
of Municipalities of Ontario.
"She was well-respected by the elected people across the province,"
McCALLION said.
On leaving municipal politics,
CURTIS was urged by all three
political parties to run for the provincial Legislature. Instead,
she moved to a farm near Markdale to be with her retired husband.
Visitation is at Gentle Shepherd Community Church, 8th Concession
and Inkerman St. in Eugenia, near Markdale, today from 2 to 4 p.m.
and 7 to 9 p.m. A celebration of
CURTIS's life will be held at
the church tomorrow at 1 p.m.
